To find the greatest number of people that Mark and Heather can invite while staying within their budget, we need to subtract the cleanup fee from the total budget and then divide the remaining amount by the per person charge.
Budget - Cleanup fee = $3,500 - $100 = $3,400
Max number of people = (Budget - Cleanup fee) / Per person charge
Max number of people = $3,400 / $31 ≈ 109.68
Since we need to round down to the nearest whole person, Mark and Heather can invite at most 109 people to their reception.
